Method and system for capturing signals in accordance with allocated resources. One method includes receiving, from a server by a network interface of a first communication device located in a cell, identification information of a second communication device located in the cell. The method further includes receiving, from a base station by the network interface of the first communication device, a resource allocation message destined for the second communication device. The resource allocation message indicates a resource allocation for the second communication device on an uplink channel of the base station. The method further includes decoding, by an electronic processor of the first communication device, the resource allocation message using the identification information of the second communication device. The method further includes capturing, by the network interface of the first communication device, signals based on the resource allocation for the second communication device.

An inter-device interference mitigation system, method, and device. The device includes a first transceiver, a second transceiver, and an electronic processor. The electronic processor is configured to receive an interference policy and receive information from a second electronic communications device to determine an interference potential.
